Decisions, decisions

8:38 p.m., Sept. 22, 2003

I got my official time today: 34 minutes, 33 seconds! I am so happy and surprised. That's 11:07 per mile - much faster than I usually run. So I ran faster and a bit further than I ever have before. This is an incredible feeling. I gotta pick another race to train for, because I had such a great experience.

PAWS, a no-kill animal shelter in Chicago, is having a run in two weeks, but it's 8K and I'm not sure I'm there yet. At the same time, it's a cause I really believe in, so I'm tempted to sign up anyway. There are other races that benefit good causes too, but I really strongly believe in PAWS' mission and would really love to play a part in helping it. That's something to mull the next few weeks.

And lest you all think I've turned some new leaf of clean living, today I ate three cocunut-rasberry Zingers. Those things are the crack of snack cakes.
